First, you need to get a lung doctor. I'm guessing by "1 1/2" you mean inches? Because results are usually in mm or cm's. Nodules can be infection or inflammation. While a PET scan doesn't diagnose cancer 100% it helps the doctor determine next steps. First, make an appointment with a lung doctor. He can discuss the scans and determine a plan for you. Let us know what he/she says.

Dear jonijean, thank you.
Yes, in inches, not centimeters. (converted them)
I am going to get a pulmonologist/lung doctor with the help of my primary doctor as you and others recommend, so thank you for that. I felt very confused initially and full of anxiety, thus I probably gave too much info in my post looking back. I'm coping better this weekend. Thank you for responding and will let you know what I find in mid July.
